Instructions

  1. In a large stockpot, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sugar. 
  2. Bring to a boil and add chicken thighs. Reduce heat and simmer for 30-40 minutes. 
  3. In the meantime, place bean thread noodles in a large bowl and pour warm water over them. Enough to cover the noodles completely. You just want them to start loosening up. Set aside until chicken and broth is done cooking.
  4. When chicken is cooked through use a slotted spoon to remove from the broth (do not discard the broth) and shred. Skim any grease or foam from the broth and then return chicken to the broth. 
  5. Stir noodles into the broth and simmer another 5 minutes or until noodles are soft and translucent. Add more chicken broth if needed if you like the noodles to be more "soup" like. 
  6. Add more soy sauce to taste (optional) and garnish with green onion.

Notes

  • These long rice noodles go by a few different names. They can be called glass noodles, cellophane noodles, bean threads, Chinese vermicelli, bean thread noodles, crystal noodles, or bean vermicelli. They are all thin, brittle, white noodles that turn clear and glassy when boiled.
  • You may be able to find them at your local grocery store but you will definitely be able to find them at your local Asian market.
  • Use kitchen shears to cut a lot of green onions at once.
